Michigan-Based Collaboration Focuses On Automated Vehicle Safety
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
The Hyundai America Technical Center, Inc. (HATCI) has announced what they deem a long-term partnership with the American Center for Mobility (ACM). The partnership is focused on the advancement of connected cars and automated driving. HATCI is one of ACM’s Founder sponsors and has contributed $5 million to support a “collaborative test environment” in Southeast Michigan.
ACM, located at the historic Willow Run site in Ypsilanti Townshin, Michigan, is a non-profit testing, education, and product development facility for future mobility. HATCI was established in 1986 in Ann Arbor, Michigan as Hyundai’s North American design, technology, and engineering division. Strong Visions
ACM wants to create a world-class proving ground where companies can develop future mobility technology. On the whole, the facility will encompass many of the non-profit’s core principles: testing, validation, product development, and education, among other things. In September, our trip to Brussels, Belgium for AutoSens showed the autonomous vehicle and connected car landscapes are rapidly evolving. To balance such an upward trajectory, collaboration remains the central theme of AutoSens; the event gathers hundreds of industry professionals working on automated driving and encourages them to work together.
This recent move by HATCI and ACM further underscores the importance of collaboration in this arena.
